Receiving this money to me means getting a stable income for my family. I plan to use the transfers to start up poultry farming which in turn will produce continous income. I have often struggled providing meals for my family due to limited income leading to hunger and psychological pressure.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is around midday because in most of my days, it's such times that as a family we are able to get sufficient meals and feel happy when all family members are satisfied.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced is my inability to provide food for my family due to the long drought that affected our farm produce. This led to malnutrition and other diseases affecting my children for many months.
